This is an exciting little limited-mintage product I was able to pick up as a Canadian Coin News (CCN) subscriber. This was only available to subscribers by phone order, and they even made me confirm my subscription number. I ordered about 2 days after receiving the paper in mail and got COA number 60. I can only imagine they sold out quickly.
The mintage is only 150 items and every one is individually numbered. It arrived in a small pouch inside a second holder with a nice little COA, that's hand signed by the publisher of the CCN. It was $49 with shipping included. It's a one ounce, hand-poured token.
I'm really in love with this little thing, and it makes me excited to order more from Beaver Bullion and John Masterson. The high-lustre polished finish is quite impressive. I love the style of the sharp, raised lines. They are a nice contrast to traditional coins with struck details. The COA number is the only detail struck on the coin. The traditional maple leaf is very crisp, and I really like the 150th anniversary logo; it lends itself well to this style.
I can't say enough about this and am very excited to get some similar items from Beaver Bullion.

The reverse of this coin bears a image of a seductive, tempting Succubus.
The succubus coin is much more than just a cool image of a pretty girl (although it certainly is). The succubus image has a much deeper and metaphorical meaning to us. It represents the struggle against any form of alluring temptation that may be wrapped in a seductive package but could ultimately lead to your demise.
In traditional folklore the succubus was a beautiful seductive demon who would seduce men, once these men were seduced their health would deteriorate and they would ultimately die. It's possible you could relate to a relationship of this nature where a partner was slowly drawing the life out of you, but on an even deeper level we feel the temptation and deteriorating effects can apply to so many aspects of one's life, not only relationships.
We also feel the succubus can serve as a constant reminder to understand the deeper meaning of anything and ensure we are not blinded by it's beauty or allure.
Lastly we also draw great strength knowing we have overcome challenges and temptations in our lives to breed character and form our personalities. This ultimately led us to our first release titled "Temptation of the Succubus"

Love this round. John Masterson from Beaver Bullion is really making a name for himself.
